Lesh and Casady are two of my all-time favorite bassists. NO one sounds like either one of them...totally singlular, instantly identifiable and profound in what they play.
I've seen them quite a few times passing through Chicago (the first time at the long gone Quite Knight, with Papa John). Always a mindblowing experience especially when you find them opening as if in a gesture of modesty, for someone you feel should be opening for them. Perhaps most intense was the time I was in second row, when they opened for Santana (in '77, I believe). I was on organic mesqaline and smoking hashish at the show and recall simply floating away during Santana for daze. I have such deep respect for Jack and Jorma, thank you for posting.
Appreciate this post. These old hippies still got it! One of the best tunes from the generation.
Thank God they are still upright and sharing their joy with us❤
Prettiest songs I ever did hear

I used to always get that warm feeling when I hear this song over the grocery store PA system HFT
